At the heart of Anza-Borrego Desert State Park is a quaint census-designated place (CDP), Borrego Springs. It is an International Dark Sky Community, which means that the night sky is keenly protected from light pollution. As such, camping and stargazing are popular here. Of course, hiking is also prominent in the area. You may hit Slot Canyon Trail or Borrego Palm Canyon Trail. For a fun-filled off-road adventure, you can explore Fonts Point. You can plan your stay during the year-round festivities in this CDP. There is the Cinco de Mayo every May and the Borrego Days Desert Festival every October, to name a few. If you like camping but do not want to let go of modern conveniences, consider a glamping space as your home base while exploring the area. Check out these top glamping spots in Borrego Springs, California, for a cozy stay.

We handpicked these listings carefully, considering (wherever possible) host status, recent guest reviews, prices, availability of dates, decor, and a location that facilitates glamping or is close to glamping spots.
